Polls
A Gallup poll reports that 39% of the people polled think Sarah Palin is "ready" to be President. Are you effing kidding me? Half the members of my local city council are more ready than she is. My mother is more ready than she is. I'm more ready than she is (well, that went without saying, but I said it anyway).
What kind of country do I live in when 39% of the people are willing to say that some random person they've never heard of, whose political stepping stone was as mayor of a town that has fewer residents than can fit in most high school football stadiums, and who is now Governor of a state whose total population would barely qualify as a major city, is "ready to be President"?
